Fred VanVleet Scores Inefficient 27 Points
4 years agoToronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet scored 27 points in a loss to the Pelicans, though he struggled with his shot. VanVleet shot just 9 of 23 from the field, his third outing of the season shooting below 40 percent from the field. Despite the struggles with efficiency, the 26-year-old has seen a slight uptick in shot attempts and usage rate, indicating that he's just had a couple of rough patches. Once VanVleet gets his shot going, he can even build on last year's breakout numbers. He'll get a tough upcoming matchup against Boston, then an easier one versus the Suns.
